: I have to agree with Clementine's criticism
: that Albert II and Charlene are not exactly
: showing themselves as reigning sovereigns.
: In my view his white jacket on the tuxedo is
: even worse than her lack of jewels.
: The Rose ball has for years if not decades
: been a black tie event instead of a white
: tie one. This has resulted in the women of
: the family not wearing a tiara. As the new
: Sovereign Princess Charlene could have
: chosen a different set up but she hasn't.
: Unfortunately Monegask princely events have
: a higher new money glitz than a royal
: glamour appeal. Charlene has not (yet?) been
: able to change that.

: Dear Clementine, I am honest to you and want
: you to tell you how absolutely unpleasant
: your entirely negative posts about a person
: you (most likely) don't know personally are.
: All of your options (actually can I not take
: one single for serious) are tendenciously
: and purely negative.
:
: One may lament the lack of jewels with HSH,
: but these suggestions (...does she think
: that...) are not of my taste. I'm convinced,
: that messages of this quality are better
: placed at Royal Dish...
:
: The Princess of Monaco will have her reasons
: not to wear big jewellery recently. May it
: be because she doesn't like it, maybe she
: does not feel at ease with or for any other
: reason neither you nor I know (and have to
: know!). HSH does not owe an explanation to
: noone (except maybe her husband), why she so
: rarely wear her big jewels.

: I didn't speak only about the Red Cross
: Ball,
: but about all the big events she attended
: for one year.
: Between the visit of a school and an State
: dinner in Berlin, it seems to me that a
: difference has to be made with the jewels we
: wear. With Charlene I would even say that
: more the event is important, less the jewels
: are present !
: Let's be honest, what can be the reasons?
: - She has lost the key of the safe (dixit
: Glenn)?
: - She has sold her jewels to make some money
: ?
: - Her skin is allergic to the gold and to
: the platinum ?
: - The economic crisis and the poverty are so
: important in Monaco that Prince Albert has
: suggested to his wife not to shock the
: opinion with her jewels ?
: - She always chooses sparkling gowns which
: don't need to wear any jewels ?
: - She thinks that jewels are for the old
: ladies who want to make their wrinkles
: forget ?
: I'm sorry, but the last one remains the less
: fanciful for me

Every new sovereign has the right to set the tone of his/her reign. To compare HSH Princess Charlene to her mother-in-law is most unfair since Grace was the product of Hollywood glamour. Of course I would love to see HSH Charlene adorned with diamonds and tiaras. It's a different era.
